Hornets coach Steve Clifford texted Josh McRoberts and Cody Zeller last night to say that drafting Noah Vonleh doesn't change how the Hornets value them. McRoberts, while his stats don't jump off the page, had a nice 2013-14 season, and perhaps earned himself a bit of a pay bump. McBob dished out 4.3 assists per game with just 1.1 turnovers, while spreading the floor with his 3-point shooting. While the Hornets would like to bring him back, it's possible he receives an offer on the open market that Charlotte simply can't match. If McRoberts doesn't return with Charlotte, Vonleh and Zeller will split minutes at the power forward spot.
